eaturing locations at Pearl City Gate- way, across O‘ahu and even on Maui, Ramen-Ya dedicates itself to keeping
customers well-fed.
The restaurant’s recipe for success
through the years has included presenting a wide-ranging menu to fit the taste buds of young and old alike, while offering great value.
“Ramen-Ya brings a unique offering to Hawai‘i, and in particular to Leeward O‘ahu. Despite the challenge of the pandemic, we have already completely reopened our seven locations for both takeout and dine-in ser- vices,” shares president Dorothy Lee, who resides in Pearl City. “We make every effort to be fully sanitized and follow all govern- ment and Centers for Disease Control guide- lines,” she adds.
“We are thankful for the last 10 years to have been voted as ‘Hawai‘i’s Best Ramen’ by our loyal customers,” Lee shares, while noting that the restaurant’s motto is “Let Ra- men-Ya be your second kitchen.”
